Hebrews 12
Hebrews 12 is the twelfth chapter of the Epistle to the Hebrews in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. The author is anonymous; however, an internal reference to "our brother Timothy" has traditionally led to the text's attribution to Paul the Apostle. The traditional Pauline authorship has been debated since the second century CE, and there is no conclusive evidence for its authorship. Chapter 12 contains the call to respond gratefully and nobly to God's invitation.
